Fig. 2.

Notes: Data taken from the main DHS sample of births described in Section 2. Each connected set of estimates is from a separate regression. The 95% confidence intervals in (a) reflect SEs clustered by survey PSU. Panel (a) uses the fully controlled specification from (1), including mother fixed effects. In (b), s denotes sex and c denotes the birth cohort of the mother and child. For a replication with a restricted sample that excludes mothers with incomplete fertility, see Online Appendix Figure A.3; for a robustness check comparing India with a sub-Saharan African sample, see Online Appendix Figure A.4.
